We had our 2nd Annual North Pole Breakfast this morning!!! So much fun!

For the past week or so, I’ve been searching the inter-web-thingy looking for an elf door. People are damned proud of these things. Most people are selling them for $25 – $40 depending on how adorable they are. You know me … I drove my happy little hiney down to Hobby Lobby and found myself an unpainted wooden door for under $10 and decided I could paint it myself (exactly the way I wanted)! I already had the craft paint from previous projects. I love it and I’m going to find a place for it tonight where it will live through the EOS season! YAY!

The holidays really snuck up on me this month and I’ve got so much to catch up on. To boot, this is my busiest month of the year! Thank goodness there are only 2 holidays … Christmas Eve/Christmas & New Years Eve. Don’t eat too much! Let me know if you have something you’d like me to include.

In honor of our elf’s return, I am hosting a photo challenge consisting of all of your elves’ shenanigans & antics. This is how it will work … take photos of your elf’s antics, email them to me at arealhousewifeinhouston@gmail.comwith the subject “Elfing Around” along with your elf’s name and a brief description of the photo (I will use this information in my post so don’t give me any personal information you don’t want me to share with everyone else … of course, I will not share any of your contact information). On Christmas day, I will post all the silliness that has ensued during this holiday season from Santa’s little helpers.

I need to take a quick moment to apologize for my absence for the last few months. Life gave me lemons and I decided to grab a bottle of vodka to go with them, which led to a long bad hangover. I think I’ve recovered but it’s going to take me some time to catch up on some of my regular posts that I missed and get this train back on track. For those of you who are still following, please bear with me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sticking around. One of these days I’ll fill you in on what has kept me away.

So without further adieu …

I’M BACK!!!!

The holidays snuck up on me … next week is already Thanksgiving. You know what that means … IT’S ELF ON THE SHELF SEASON and Tinsel will be all over my blog again. I’m sorry if you don’t like Christmas or Elf On The Shelf. I really didn’t like either until I had children so all I can say about that is “Oh Well.”

I’ve been pilfering Pinterest to find some new EOS ideas and just finished my calendar. Feel free to use it if you need some ideas.

You’ll want to download the pdf file. As you can see from the image above, I built links into it. I am using a few of the same shenanigans I did last year (the actual number dates are linked back to mine from last year so you can get a better image of what I did and any downloads I linked back to then). But I found some new ones that I think you’ll like and linked back to the blogs or Pinterest pins I found them on. Some of the other blogs have some printables that you will need to complete the task.

I can’t wait to see what you EOS-lovers come up with.
